Anduril

Anduril, founded in 2017, builds advanced autonomous systems and defense technology for US and allied forces. The company takes a software-first approach to hardware and AI systems, departing from the traditional defense contractor model. Its work spans autonomous systems, AI, undersea autonomy, counter-UAS and rocket propulsion, serving the defense, national security and aerospace and defense sectors.

Products include autonomous undersea vehicles for defense applications, counter-drone (counter-UAS) systems and solid rocket motors. The company operates in the United States and has grown quickly since its founding.

Engineers take ownership of projects with real, material impact, supported by an emphasis on attention to detail and relentless testing. The team is drawn from diverse backgrounds, including ex-Palantir engineers and military veterans, and is organised around a mission-driven culture focused on work that protects lives. Anduril holds that the national security approach needs to fundamentally change.
